Winsys32 problem dear problem solver, when i switch on my comp, after the booting process when it reaches to the desktop, the first msg it shows is like 'specified path name of winsys32 could not be found.' Let me tell you one thing more, i have had internet installed just a week back, and this problem has surfaced only after when I updated the avast antivirus software. It has barred the access to many a files mostly .exe ones. This has also led to slowdown of my PC. Kindly Suggest me what to do????

4)xp setup screen will apear,folow all steps,till it gives you the choice to "repair"

hi, your OS is corrupted and may need re-installation. Before that, if you can load explorer.exe manually and see the desktop, then go for a system restore from the system tools to an earlier date. Also try to boot to the known good configuration from the boot menu.
thanks

If you can boot with a Windows 98 floppy boot disk, then do so, you need to run scandisk. It is also possible that your hard drive has failed, you can go into the bios and see if it is being recognized.

Hi, First of all start your PC using window which is working and then go to the start->run->(type)cmd(press enter) and open the drive which contain the window to be repaired (C:) then run the command "chkdsk". Then restart your PC with the Window in C drive. I hope this can fix your problem.

in this case i assume the 'OC' is refering to the overclocking facility in your bios, so firstly press F2 or Del when your pc is booting up and, unless you have changed any settings to cause the fault, look in the cmos settings for 'Load Default Settings', save settings and exit for a reboot and see if the same message pops up.
If so you may need to check the memory is seated correctly and any other peripheral connected to your motherboard, assuming it is a desktop pc.
Isf still no change try resetting the bios by way of a terminal called CLRCMOS or CLR CLK or JBAT1, but you will have to refer to yourmotherboard manula or post the board details back here.
